4x10 steady states

I used Newfound Gap Road in Greats Smoky Mtn National Park starting close to the park entrance for these. The goal was four, 10 minute efforts at 330 watts. The results were 336, 333, 330 and 331 with cadence at 85-87 average and HR averaging in the low 150's but reaching 160. I threw in another nice climb up Cherokee Orchard Road and was looking at riding the one way Roaring Fork Motor Trail but the sunny skies that I started the ride in (55 degrees when I left) had turned to a drizzle and then a steady rain and the temps dropped into the mid 40's. Still ended up with 3900' of climbing in 2.5 hours, normalized power of 270 and a TSS of 163. Tomorrow is an off day before more 4x10's on Sunday.
